Here's one way: perl -e 'printf "%X\n", ord("A");'
This will return the hexadecimal representation of the ASCII character "A"
(41).
If you want to script this (ksh) you could do something like this:
- - - - - snip - - - - -
#!/bin/sh
export CHAR="B"
HEX=$(perl -e 'printf "%X\n", ord($ENV{CHAR});')
print "$CHAR = $HEX"
- - - - - snip - - - - -
